"You say you've never seen a lady love the herb like I do, true you say it's not a part of your culture for the lady to smoke the herb, I love my sensi, it makes me feel so irate*; for true meditation I need my brain food everyday, true iration* is where I must stay! I need you to understand why I need my pacalolo** strictly island vibes, all of my life. So many people die from alcohol each day, no one ever dies from gettin' irate*, cigarettes are bad that's what the doctors say, that's why I realize my love for sensi!" - Irie Love

"Persons using this narcotic smoke the dried leaves of the plant, which has the effect of driving them completely insane. Addicts to this drug, while under its influence, are immune to pain, and could be severely injured without having any realization of their condition. While in this condition they become raving maniacs and are liable to kill or indulge in any form of violence to other persons, using the most savage methods of cruelty without, as said before, any sense of moral responsibility."

"Hemp is of first necessity to the wealth & protection of the country." -Thomas Jefferson (It still is!)

"An acre of the best ground for hemp, is to be selected and sewn in hemp and be kept for a permanent hemp patch."

Thomas Jefferson's Garden book- 1849

I once read his Garden book- there were 3 references (that I remember) to hemp. There was the above, another referring to planting more hemp, and the third was him wistfully regretting that he would not be home for the hemp harvest! (Now, I know the slaves were familiar with smoking hemp- I wonder if "Brown Sallie" turned him on to it? )


"May 12-13: Sowed Hemp at Muddy hole by Swamp. August 7: Began to separate the Male from the Female at Do - rather too late."
George Washington - Diary


"In defense of the Pygmies, perhaps I should note that a friend of mine who has spent time with them says that for such activities as the patient stalking and hunting of mammals and fish they prepare themselves through marijuana intoxication, which helps to make the long waits, boring to anyone further evolved than a Komodo dragon, at least moderately tolerable. Ganja is, he says, their only cultivated crop. It would be wryly interesting if in human history the cultivation of marijuana led generally to the invention of agriculture, and thereby to civilization."
Carl Sagan - The Dragons of Eden - 1977

(And I have heard the Pygmies have the best ganja in Africa!)


"Prohibition...goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded."
Abraham Lincoln, - December 1840

"The prestige of government has undoubtedly been lowered considerably by the prohibition law. For nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced. It is an open secret that the dangerous increase of crime in this country is closely connected with this."
Albert Einstein,
"My First Impression of the USA," 1921

Einstein, Sagan, Lincoln, Washington and Jefferson- none of them are exactly dumb-bunnies! Wish our politicians would read the quotes listed in this thread! - Granny:hippy:

[zeitgeist]

If you substitute marijuana for tobacco and alcohol, you'll add eight to 24 years to your life.

In fact, marijuana lowers your stress level and lowers your body temperature. It actually seems that people live longer if they use it.

Well, as I understand it, the main supporters are beer companies and the pharmaceutical companies. I'd like them to show me the dead bodies from marijuana. But they can't because there aren't any.

- Jack Herer

Dogs are attracted to the smell of marijuana.
-Kenneth Anger

"Man made booze. God made marijuana. Who do you trust?"
-Anonymous

They lie about marijuana. Tell you pot-smoking makes you unmotivated. Lie! When you're high, you can do everything you normally do, just as well. You just realize that it's not worth the f****** effort. There is a difference."
-Bill Hicks

"Smoking's a way to let you down slowly from a ballgame. It also makes you use less of the resources around. It makes people better in the way they act towards society. Everybody's nicer. It's hard to be mean when you're stoned."
-Bill Lee

"It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it."
-Upton Sinclair

Iâ??d always done a lot of (sniffing) glue as a kid. I was very interested in glue, and then I went to lager and speed, and I drifted into heroin because as a kid growing up everybody told me, â??donâ??t smoke marijuana, it will kill youâ?? ..."
-Irvine Walsh
